Polaroid Mint Instant Digital Pocket Printer
Print any photo from your smartphone or tablet on-the-go with the Polaroid Mint instant digital pocket printer. The printer connects to the Polaroid Mint app on your smart device via Bluetooth to print stunning 2"x3" full-color glossy photos in less than a minute.

Both the Polaroid Mint camera and printer use the ink-free Zero Ink® printing technology developed by ZINK.  ZINK is a revolutionary technology for digital devices that was born in the Polaroid organization before being spun off to become an independent company. The ZINK-enabled printer uses heat to activate and colorize cyan, yellow and magenta dye crystals embedded in the paper. The result is full-color, high quality, long-lasting and smudge-proof images without ink cartridges, ribbons or toner. The 2"x3" photo prints in just under a minute so consumers can instantly share the photo with friends and family.

Offered by C+A Global, an authorized Polaroid licensee, the Polaroid Mint instant digital camera and Polaroid Mint instant digital pocket printer will be available at retailers worldwide in the fourth quarter of 2018. Both products will be available at IFA for demos at booth #107 in Hall 25. To learn more, please visit polaroid.com
